• great and buried advice for you, ADHDers...
  • Realize that you gain nothing from being shy. That doesn't mean you have to start making speeches in front of crowds. It means you have to be as open and honest as you plainly can be. There's nothing wrong with emotions and there's nothing wrong with telling people how you feel about something. No one can ever contest how you feel. Being an open book may sound like a vulnerable position to be in, but it is the exact opposite.
  • Spend money on experiences and not things. Read more books. Have what she's having. Make things, always make things, physical things, even if its just paper cranes and home-cooked meals. Create and share. Understand that most people won't give a shit. That's okay. Always create. Enjoy the beauty of it.
